Friendly staff. Location was convenient. Excellent breakfast. Didn’t have time for evening reception / happy hour. Unfortunately, the room was quite dated. Lampshades were discolored and baseboard coming apart in room. Toilet made extremely loud noises when flushing. Heater wasn’t working. Needed to request extra blankets. Difficult to get hot water for showering.
